anyway, vl7.1 64 040 version 's installer made problem, file install copying stalled at 10%....then changed to version 039 installer, can install and boot, but on xfce no mouse no keyboard, guess intel g41 x org driver does n't work properly due to the kernel patches on vl7.1 40 version....same mb under knoppix 7.20 and mandriva,work in 3d nicely....

hope vl7.1 developper will release new fix installer and driver for g41 chipsets....

>.< The MESA 9.1 driver DOES support g41 and 3D operations. Knoppix 7.2 uses an older version of xorg server as does Mandriva. Again, this is most likely NOT a driver issue. It's most likely an xorg issue. You can try creating an xorg.conf file via VASM to see if the issue corrects itself.

typing

vasm command no response at all,

did try "vxconf" making xorg.conf many times, chose "intel" in xorg.conf,no X..... only chose "vesa" can bring gui xfce4

This is something you'll most likely need to flesh out in xorg.conf. The mesa driver supports 3D operations on the G41 chipset, but you need to specify in xorg.conf how it's addressed. Be prepared for the day when xorg stops supporting that chipset as well. It's pretty old as far as intel graphics goes.

acording to intel support,

libva-intel-driver pkg 's needed, but it's not available with vectorlinux7.1-64

VASM is missing on vl7.1 b040.....are you running vl7.1 b040 now , or some other platform,?if you didn't run 040, how do you know there's vasm available?

you should make test install of b040 on your PC, get real hanson experience, then you can advise better.

Every single beta version that is released is installed and tested. In fact, I'm using B0.40 right this minute, and will continue to do so until .41 is released. Then I'll be using THAT release.

Key point to make as well. These are Beta releases. There will be issues to be ironed out and there are absolutely NO guarantees that it will work on every single system. Posting every 5 minutes crying about getting something to work doesn't cut it, nor is it appreciated.

ho did you manage to install vl7.1 64 iso? burning a cd or unetbootin or vinstall-iso-ng?

did manage to install b040 under knoppix 's runlevel 2 as root with ./vinstall-iso-ng , but only text installer available then.
